Mohammad Hoseini Athar

Mohammad Hoseini Athar is a Researcher at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, affiliated with the Hultgren Laboratory for Materials Characterization. He earned his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Tehran in 2019 and has since held postdoctoral and researcher roles at KTH. His work focuses on understanding microstructure-mechanical property correlations in engineering materials, combining experimental mechanical testing with advanced materials modeling.

Current projects include leading EU-funded initiatives such as REPAM (powder production/recycling optimization), Steel4Fatigue (high-strength steels for mobility), and NEXT (neutron/synchrotron-based materials innovation), as well as Vinnova-funded projects like RECaSt (durable cast steel design). His research emphasizes fatigue behavior, residual stress analysis, and alloy development for industrial applications.

He leads a team of postdoctoral researchers and doctoral students, specializing in experimental and computational analysis of materials under extreme conditions. His interdisciplinary approach bridges materials characterization, mechanical behavior modeling, and sustainable manufacturing processes.
